Two part question for the loving, tolerant Left — including the “Christian” Left:  1. Should we screen for the Coronavirus for people entering the country through airports or cruise ships?  2. If yes, then how about at our borders?

Hoax² — Just when you thought the media and the Democrats couldn’t sink any lower, they make up a hoax about Trump’s hoax comments — and prove his point entirely, namely that the Left is politicizing it all!  He said their politicization was the hoax, not the virus itself — and they know that, but assume their low-information followers won’t.

P.S. Just kidding.  We knew they could sink lower.

Would Biden Put Stacey Abrams on Supreme Court? — Probably.  Except she’d already be his VP, and could be President if he died (and he might).  She’s awful, and one of the many reasons a Democrat in the White House is dangerous.

Todd White, Bill Johnson and Benny Hinn Race to China To End the Coronavirus! — The Messed Up Church — Not the Babylon Bee, but still good satire!  Those frauds will be nowhere to be found.

Alleged Victim of Bill Hybels Tells Story of How Church Tried to Silence Her — Hybels was awful and creepy for a long time. Shame on those around him who let it all happen.

In this meeting I was told I was lying or mis-remembering every bit of what I reported. I was told the comments about my body and my clothes weren’t inappropriate since I had already shared in my testimony that I wasn’t wearing anything provocative. I was told the grooming patterns, boundary testing and secrecy building of ‘delete’ email conversations and him frequently affirming the most broken parts of my story growing up were me “being dramatic”. I was told the numerous inappropriate invitations I had declined, to be alone with him (in inappropriate settings) were his attempt to be available to pastor and mentor me. I was told that him meeting me outside on the very day I went to the church to document my grievances with HR, after being asked by his colleagues for real time updates about my arrival time, was “a coincidence”. I was told if they wanted to, they could make it look like I was pursuing him. Although not one person who could confirm any of my accounts was ever contacted, I was told that none of them were true. I was told I needed to know I was the only woman in 42 years to ever say he was inappropriate with me.I was then asked for confidentiality about my experiences, which I refused. The word devastated doesn’t begin to describe how I left that meeting. I resigned from my position and spent weeks just trying to make it through the day. The most painful part wasn’t even his behavior- rather that the church leaders whom I loved and respected and served with, didn’t believe me and failed to protect me. I have wrestled with God about my calling to serve the church almost every day since.

EPIC fail! Senate Dems’ 2-year-old tweet about what ending net neutrality would cause ‘did not age well’ (FCC chairman rubs it in) — Nice reminder of the completely overblown fears about ending that bad program.

Ex-Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh sentenced for book sales scheme  — This is clearly all Trump’s fault.

The collapse of Pugh’s mayoralty was another black eye for Baltimore, a crime- and poverty-plagued city that saw a previous mayor, Sheila Dixon, resign in 2010 after her conviction on embezzling gift cards intended for poor people. Dixon later tried to regain the mayor’s office after completing her probation, but was defeated by Pugh in the city’s 2016 Democratic primary.

Milwaukee Mass Shooter is a Black Elizabeth Warren Supporter – In case you were wondering why that story went down the memory hole so quickly.  Had it been a Trump supporter we’d be hearing about it for weeks.

Constantine beefed up the palace bureaucracy. He created a set of powerful officials who were directly responsible to him. They were new and more specialized administrators with new bureaus to run. There was an even a new corps, staffed by legionaries, to carry confidential messages between the center and the provinces. All this consolidation and centralization made government more efficient but not more pure. All those administrators expected “tips,” to put it mildly. In fact, the bigger Roman government grew, the more corruption became a problem. Constantine understood that exchanging gifts and favors in return for services was no small part of government. So, in order to forge ties with powerful people in the provinces, he created new titles and distinctions and even, as mentioned, a new Senate for Constantinople. He was also lavish in his generosity to individuals and cities. This was good for politics but not for the Treasury. As a result, taxes went up.

Those companies aren’t liable for people who misuse those products, nor should gun manufacturers be. It is just a shameless anti-2nd Amendment ploy to take our guns.

Venezuelan describes daily life in his country: ‘My Socialism Nightmare’ — Is there a political party in the U.S. that is anti-police?  Asking for a friend.

It’s not just the health system that has collapsed, it’s also the police. “No one ever is going to invest in Venezuela if there is no police,” he explained. “If you get robbed and you cannot tell anyone, who is going to put their money in jeopardy like that?” he said.

Both of these categories accounted for far more “carnage in our streets” the rifles.

Traditional Wives Set Feminism Back — I’m glad to see the “tradwife” thing becoming a popular discussion topic.  Even if the feminists are hating on the concept, it highlights the debate.  Too many women think there is no alternative, but there is a much better way.  Countless women – including many in the church – have bought that lie that they can sleep around and be career-oriented until they are 30 and then have their pick of perfect men.  But that’s not how it plays out.

Feminists can plainly see how much more difficult feminism has made their lives, yet going back home, being wives, mothers, and homemakers is appalling to them since it “sets women back.” You see, women, Satan is the author of confusion. Feminists are confused. They believe they fought so hard for their rights that if they go back, they’re giving up all of these rights that have made their lives so difficult.

Intellectual laziness is poison.

BIAS: Roger Stone Jury Forewoman Is Partisan Anti-Trump Democrat — And yet another Dem fiasco where they are caught cheating while trying to blame Trump et al.  She’s a moron for thinking this wouldn’t get out and hurt the Left’s cause, but not a complete moron because she probably inferred that the Leftist media would hide it while they try to go after Barr and Trump.

The foreperson on the jury that convicted Roger Stone has come forward, and is revealed to be a failed Democrat candidate for Congress and activist vehemently opposed to President Donald Trump. Tomeka Hart, a former Memphis City Schools Board President, came forward as the Stone jury foreperson in a Facebook post on Wednesday, voicing support for prosecutors in the case.

Woman Donates Last Dollar To Warren Campaign In Final Bad Financial Decision | The Babylon Bee

Brady is yet another victim of the great but not super-duper extra great economy and especially of her own decisions, picking up a ton of student debt in a major for which there aren’t any jobs. She has barely managed to subsist after college thanks to her low pay and also thanks to living in a place that is well out of her price range and constantly indulging in things like $30 avocado toast delivered through GrubHub because she “deserved it.” All of this has now culminated in her final dollar ending up in the failing presidential campaign of Elizabeth Warren to support Warren’s completely unworkable plans that would never pass Congress in the extremely unlikely event that Warren ever became president.

“Your spouse will swoon upon reading that her teeth are like a flock of sheep or that her nose is like a giant tower,” said the CEO of Solomonhearts, David Meyers. “It’s a foolproof way to let her know how beautiful she is and how much you love her.””

Messages include touching, romantic poetry like the following: Hey, tower neck! Ur breasts are fauns Ur teeth are sheep You have goat hair Ur legs = marble pillars Pardon me but your goblet is showing Ur tower nose is hawt

Chicago Schadenfreude: Smollett Charged Again — This is important news.  God had a great idea to prevent false accusations: The hoaxers would risk getting the punishment they sought for the innocent! He said that would be just and a deterrent to other false accusers.

Deuteronomy 19:16–21 If a malicious witness arises to accuse a person of wrongdoing, then both parties to the dispute shall appear before the LORD, before the priests and the judges who are in office in those days. The judges shall inquire diligently, and if the witness is a false witness and has accused his brother falsely, then you shall do to him as he had meant to do to his brother. So you shall purge the evil from your midst. And the rest shall hear and fear, and shall never again commit any such evil among you. Your eye shall not pity. It shall be life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.

Is There Still a Place for Blogs in 2020? — Yes!  Good analysis.

Second, we are seeing the shortcomings of other forms of social media. When blogs began, they were social media. They were an early form of online social connection between people who shared similar interests, whether that was politics, hobbies, Reformed theology, or anything else. But it did not take long for other forms of social media to develop—Twitter was at first considered “microblogging” and Facebook was a kind of “friend and family blogging.” Yet as much as each of these has displaced blogging in certain ways, none has quite replaced it. Twitter causes as many problems as it solves by its immediacy and by the nature of its character limit; Facebook emphasizes the most urgent information while older updates or articles almost immediately disappear into the void. These forms of social media speak to the present, but don’t adequately archive information. They allow people to speak quickly, but don’t value thoughtfulness. Though they have strengths, they also have weaknesses—weaknesses that blogs address well.

Elizabeth Warren Is Doomed, and Feminists Can’t Understand Why — All of the pro-abortion, gun-grabbing, pro-coveting, pro-perversion, pro-fornication Democrats are evil, of course, but that doesn’t mean we can’t rejoice as most of them lose. It is schadenfreude time to watch Warren.

Warren is the phoniest politician in memory, from the Fauxcahontas lie as the foundation for her entire career to the cringe-worthy beer video and everything in between. She was popular among some females, but what real male would vote for a woman who says she will let a trans child — who is by definition mentally ill and foolish — pick the Secretary of Education?

And now in her desperation she’ll get even weirder. Pass the popcorn!

What’s Wrong with Jesus Calling? — Everything.  I just made this point to a group of Kairos prison ministry volunteers.  There was an exercise that was half good (expressing your desires to Jesus through prayer) and half bad (asking Jesus to tell you what He wants you to do, but not telling you to read the Bible to find that out).  Of course I told them why we wouldn’t be doing the second part.  I noted that with books like Jesus Calling you need to add them to the Bible or throw them away, and that they could guess which one I would recommend.

So Young has either written the words of Jesus, or she hasn’t. There’s no in between. If she hasn’t received a word from the Lord, but she claims she has—and made a lot of money from it—is that not the very picture of a false prophet?

The Bible is God’s sufficient word. We need no other! Beware these crazy women who claim God has spoken to them apart from Scripture. The Bible calls them liars, when we understand the text.

‘Just Xerox a copy’: After you hear Mike Bloomberg’s 2015 speech on minorities you’ll see why he tried to block it #BloombergIsRacist — Also see Pete’s comments on black money — oops, dark money — to a group of black people.  If Trump said these things we’d hear about it 24×7, even though the only “racist” comments they attribute to Trump are those they have made up.

When the Church Apologizes for Its Beliefs — We dishonor God when we apologize for what He says.  And we make a terrible witness as well.  The world will always hate you for beliefs, but when you cave to them they lose all respect.

Just days later came another headline, and this one, sadly, didn’t surprise me: “Church sorry for saying that sex is just for married heterosexuals.” Leaders in the Church of England said their initial statement had “jeopardized trust” and caused “hurt and division.” Nothing in the follow-up statement retracted the substance of their earlier pastoral guidance, which made their subsequent apology something like this: We’re sorry we told you what we believe.

Original sin in photo form.  “You can’t tell me what to do!”
